Great trail running shoe

By Bert Ranked #1156 - Men's Trail Run Shoes May 8, 2007

My first month of experience with the amp boa’s have been great. The best part about the Amp Boa is the Boa Lacing System. The Boa stainless steel Lacing System gives me the ability to make minute adjustments and maintain that same tightness for all my runs. This is my first pair of North Face shoes and the quality and durability are superb. I love the large amount of reflective material on the shoes that make running at night safer. I noticed that many of the tread patterns on the other North Face shoes are best used on trails. The Amp Boa has a very versatile tread pattern that I have used on both trail and street runs. The ankle support and anti-roll function is great. The ankle is a bit stiffer than most shoes you will experience. This stiffness took a day or two to get used too and after that, I have loved the safe and secure feel while trail running. If I put on my old running shoes or try on my friends shoes, the ankle support in those feels loose and splashy compared to my amp boa’s. Overall, I would recommend this shoe to any trail runner.
